A glimpse into life with the Mets
Welcome to my blog, everybody. This is the first time I’ve tried to do something like this, so I’m going to have some fun with it and try to give you a glimpse of what it’s like inside the Mets clubhouse. You can help me out by giving me your thoughts and suggestions as the season goes along. I’ll try to answer some of your questions whenever I have a chance.
The first thing I realize is that I need a cool name for my blog to replace "Getting it Wright," so send along your ideas through the "Comments" link below and I'll choose the one I think is best.
My first season with the Mets went by fast. It was a lot of fun and memorable to say the least -– even having to take orders from Cliff Floyd. It was all part of the rookie experience, sort of my initiation into the big leagues. That stuff is in all in good fun and it really helped make me feel like part of the team.
During the offseason I was just like any other Mets fan, I guess. I would get online every day and check to see what kind of moves the front office was making. Needless to say, I liked what I was reading all winter. With each one of the moves, I found myself nodding my head and thinking, "This is going to be a big help." Now, when I take a look around our clubhouse, I realize the sum is even greater than the parts.
It was tough to lose guy like Mike Piazza, who was a legend in this city, and Mike Cameron, of course, but Omar Minaya, the Wilpons and the rest of the front office did an outstanding job by adding guys like Carlos Delgado, Billy Wagner, Paul Lo Duca, Xavier Nady and Duaner Sanchez. Julio Franco is another guy that’s going to bring a lot to this team.
I got to meet all of these new guys when we had our Mets caravan in January. Then we had Spring Training to get to know each other a little bit better. Now we have the task of putting together all of this great talent and making ourselves a team. We have all the right tools and all the right pieces. Now we have to put it together and play cohesively.
My biggest expectation going into this season is to win a lot more games. One way or another, that’s what we need to do and that’s really the only thing that matters. The only important statistics are our won-lost record and the NL standings.
We have a playoff caliber team. In fact, we have the talent to go deep in the playoffs. Now, we just have to stay healthy and play like we’re capable of playing. One of the things I like about this year’s club, so far, is the way the veteran guys on the team have been speaking up, especially the guys who have played on winning teams.
Those guys keep reinforcing –- as cliché as this sounds -– that we have to play for the team on the front of our jerseys rather than the name on the back. We have to pull for one another, play for one another and pick each other up.
It’s a long season in baseball, so we’re all going to have our moments to contribute and we’re all going to have work through slumps and injuries. If somebody doesn’t get the job done in front of you, then it becomes your responsibility to pick him up.
Hopefully, having that strong team attitude from the very beginning will help set the tone for a winning season. I’m only in my second year, so I know how important it is to be surrounded by some veterans who you can lean on a little bit.
Speaking of veterans, I think Cliff is going to be delegating his bag carrying duties between a couple of new rookies this season. It looks like Brian Bannister and Anderson Hernandez are taking over for me this year. As long as I don’t have to do it anymore!
Seriously, though, Cliff will take good care of them, like he did for me. I had to do a lot of chores but he always took care of me, too. He bought me some nice new suits and took me to dinner, so it was well worth it. I’m sure he won’t be too hard on Brian and Anderson, either.
I couldn’t be happier playing for the Mets and being a New Yorker. One of the things I realize living in Manhattan is that we play for the greatest fans in the world. They recognize everybody on the roster, from No. 1 to No. 25. Even as a relatively new guy, people recognize me every time I walk out of my apartment.
It’s all good, though. You get words of encouragement -– a "good game last night" or a quick "hello" -– little things like that that let you know that they appreciate your efforts. There’s so much excitement and electricity. New York sports, baseball in particular, has a certain energy that you don’t get anywhere else. I’m lucky to be a part of it.
I’m going to try and update this at least once per homestand, so keep reading and let's have a winning season together.

Congrats on your great 2005 David.
If the Mets were smart, they'd buy out your arbitration years right now. Give you some long-term stability.
Good luck on your 2006 campaign!

Hey David, my name is Matt and I'm a big Met fan. I appreciate what you are doing for the Mets and the city. It is so exciting to watch you and the Mets this year. I am confident that you and the team can get into the playoffs this year. I'll be at the stadium on 4/15 on the 3rd base side so I'll see you. I am an inspired young baseball player who is interested in pursuing baseball as a profession. I know it is hard, but if you have any tips I would really appreciate it.

28 year old lifetime Mets fan here from Ohio originally from NY. Great first series man, good to see you off to a hot start. I followed you through the Mets farm system and I knew you would make it. Anyway, how do you feel about the fans booing Beltran? I thought it was pre-mature. Anyway good luck against the Marlins.

Mr. David Wright,
Hi I am a 16 year old die hard Met fan. I am so thankful for the Mets organization drafting you. You have became my favorite player and my hero. I don't know if you remember but I met you in spring training and told you that I would buy your Wilson glove. 2 months later..I own a Wilson glove. Good luck this season. Continue to be yourself and good fortune will follow.

Hey David (or Mr. Wright? =): Let me just say that I think you are awesome!!!. I've been following your career since mid '04-when you came up--and what you've accomplished is amazing and I can see you will be a memorable player for years to come. Eventhough I'm a Marlins fan(I live in Miami), I think you guys have everything necesary to win not only the NL East, but a much needed World Series. Keep doing the awesomely great job you're constanly doing, and I'll see you when you guys come play the Marlins. Please, keep writing on this website, I like hearing from you.

Good luck this season!!

Hello David,
I'm going to take liberties and call you David because I may be twice your age. Hope that's alright. I want to comment about Carlos Beltran being treated as he is by "Mets fans". I just wanted to take a moment to give him a few words of encouragement, and ask your opinion.
On July 19,2005 at about 11:00am est, while at work, I suffered a stroke. My vision went seriously blurry in one eye, I had an intense headache for about a minute and from that point on I slurred my words and felt a loss of coordination. I knew it was a stroke but I stayed to finish work because I had just started a new job and didn't want to lose it.
I went home and watched my beloved Mets before I went to the hospital. Chris Woodward won the game with a walk off homer in extra innings. Then and only then did I go to the hospital. "How is this relevant?" You may ask. My point is ... I am a REAL Mets fan!! Not those idiots who stand there and try to make players feel worse after they have given their best effort and fallen short. I can see in a guys eyes that he cares.
You guys have TRUE fans. You may not hear us, but we are out here. We live and die with every pitch and hurt as much as you guys when it doesn't work out. I just want you guys to know that I watch every game and I am rooting for you. When you hear a bunch of idiots booing, know that us real fans are out here and we am not booing.
I'm walking again now and I'm going to run, and golf and do everything I used to do again. I'm not giving up and don't you guys give up ... REAL Mets fans love you and are behind you.
!!! Okay, I rambled but it makes me crazy. What do you think David? Don't you guys wanna just choke the people who get down on your teammates?

Hey, David!
As I said on the MLBlogoshere, I think your blog should be called "The Wright Stuff" because you certainly have it! I really hope the Mets break the Braves division-winning streak this year.
I am 50 yrs old and grew up in NYC a Mets fan. If I recall correctly you are wearing the number of another Mets third baseman, Ed "The Glider" Charles, who was at the hot corner for the '69 Championship.
Best of luck to you this year, and welcome.

Hey David, you are my favorite player and you play the game with so much passion and energy and its amazing how you always look happy on camera. I watched the game last night and it was rediculous how you battled every at-bat, and right now to me, unbiasly (I'm a Met fan), you and Chris Shelton of the Tigers are looking like the most consistant hitters in baseball. Keep it up, you're doing great.

David, you are quite possibly the best thing to happen to the Mets (and Mets fans) in such a long time. From the moment the Mets added you to the roster, I was so enormously excited that the Mets finally had some young talent that I went over to my friends house to give her the news (to which she gave me a look of pity). It's tough being a fan from so far away (Portland, OR) but you definitely make the Mets worth following. So THANK YOU for being so amazing to us fans, and good luck with your blog. By the way, I like the title as is. I start college in MA this year, so I'll get to as many games as possible.

Hi David!
I grew up in Connecticut and have been going to Shea Stadium every season since I was 8. Now that I am soon to graduate from college, I'm considering going to grad school in the city (so that I'm closer to the stadium!)
With that said, I think you are the greatest thing to happen to this team in a long time. You play the game for the team and the fans, and that shows. Even with your amazing display of talent every game, I think Met fans appreciate that the most.
I was at the game last night and even though it may be a bit early in the season, I think the crowd was right to chant "MVP" every time you walked onto the field. Thank you for your dedication and for your commitment to the fans.
How about "the Wright Way" for your blog? (although I must say, I'm kind of partial to "Writings" by fava@yahoo.com)

I am a 27 year old chic and a die hard Met’s fan. Thanks for taking the time out to reach out to your fans this way. Congrats on a great season last year and best of luck this year!! You are definitely on your way to a hall of fame career. I was at the workout day this year on April 2nd which was very enjoyable. I stayed around after to try and get your autograph but you drove right by. Nice Range Rover!! Hopefully there will be other opportunities to get your autograph as I will be at many games this year cheering you and the team on. I got a suggestion for your blog name…how about “The Wright Stuff”? Maybe if you choose that name for your blog I can meet you in person. GO METS!!!

Hi, David.
Unlike some of the others, I can write that I am more than twice your age. I was working on my second master's degree when you were born!
"Wright" means workman in earlier English, such as in Cartwright or Waynewright (wheel maker). Therefore, given that you are blogging for the team, I suggest "teamwright", which would translate into teamworker. From your enthusiasm on this blog, I'd guess that teamwork is indeed one of your emphasis.
I personally don't have anything against Ted Turner, but I am quite tired of having the Braves first every year. I'd love to see the Mets beat them out.
I used to spend way too much time in the summers on the Mets, back when Tom Seaver was the superstar. I'm sure he wishes that he could've had a blog back in 1971! I was too busy to enjoy 1986, but this time I'll make the time!
In any case, this blog is a welcome relief to the other aspects of life, such as politics -- back then I didn't care what Nixon was doing, so I'll visit just for the inspiration!

First off... that shot you hit tonight against Florida was A TITANIC BLAST... and the replay shows that you hit perfectly...its just awe inspiring. I am a die hard Mets fan from THE BRONX of all places (so you imagine I catch alot of heat)and in my short life (I'm only 19) I have witnessed way to many Heartbreaking events of Mets teams in the past... being Born in 1987 I feel that I got ripped off by a few months becasue I wasn't around for our last world series victory... but I have a great feeling about this years team, and I know that if you guys can all stay healthy that the team will go places... 20th aniversary of our last title... why not take another 1? Anways I think that you are a PHENOM and that catch over the shoulder last year was THE MOST INSANE THING I'VE EVER SEEN... The team is going to go places for a very long time and I feel that you will be at the forefront of it all... you're the man... as for the Blog... be like spike lee and "Do the Wright Thing" man... lol

David,
My name is Jocelyn and I'm a huge fan of yours!! I think that what your doing is totally awesome, and I speak for all fans here...we really do appriciate this. There are so many athletes out there that are cocky and let all the fame get into their heads and I'm really glad to see that your not like that at all. I heard the interview you had on z100 and I met you last year one night when i waited outside of the player's parking lot...and you were one of the only players who stopped and signed autographs. From those 5 minutes I could tell that you were a nice guy who loves his fans, and I respect you so much for that. It doesnt hurt that ur really hott, too, lol. I also was really thrilled to find out about the David Wright Foundation, to fight against Multiple Sclerosis. MS has affect my brother, and he is a huge Mets fan, too...so it really means a lot to me that you are doing this. I would love if you can post up some information about events that we can participate in, I always go to www.davidwrightfoundation.com...but by using this blog, it could really help spread the word!! Thanks again for everything, I love what your doing and what you've done to the Mets. By the way you've been playing and how you always give 110% everyday in the field, I know that one day you'll be a legendary name in NY like Seaver, Carter, Jeter, Piazza, etc. etc. I was also born in 87 so I never witnessed a Mets World Series victory..and I know you'll be a huge asset to the team by getting them there. Have a great season!!
<3 Jocelyn <3
P.S. Silly question...but I was wondering if you had a myspace? I've been seeing a few of them around that have ur name and picture, along with other players from the Mets. So do you or any other Mets players have them? Or are the all posers?

Everyone knows that New York has the best third baseman in the MLB. After this season everyone will know that he plays for the Mets and not the Yankees. Just play your game along with the rest of the Mets and 2006 and beyond should involve great things. I like the 1st blog can't wait for the next one. P.S.

david,
first off, congratulations on the hot start, both personally and on a team level. i know it feels great for all of us to have you come out of the gates fast like this.
not to put any undue pressure on you, but you cannot imagine what you mean to our fans and our city. many of us feel like you are going to be a legend, not to jump the gun or anything ;) having someone like you on our roster is invaluable. you are worth your weight in gold to us fans, and at the going rate, thats about 1,920,000 (600$/oz * 16oz/lb * 200 lb). come to think of it, you are worth MORE than your weight in gold. We all hope to never see you wear another uniform.
you have already surpassed keith hernandez as my alltime favorite met (and that is by no means an easy task).
stay clutch, and stay orange and blue.

Hey Mr. Wright, welcome to the Metsblogging community. My name is Itsmetsforme. I'm like the David Wright of the metsblogging community. I kid.
I have two requests. I noticed that a poster above signed off: DA BRONX BOMBERS. Well we just can't have that. Please take every opportunity to express your hatred of the Yankees and the Braves. We hate them.
Second I hope your publicist is penning this blog for you. Please don't waste too much of your time with a blog. We don't want you straining your eyes, or stubbing a finger or something. All we ask is that you continue your path to greatness, become the Metropolitian's savior, "wright" all the Met wrongs of the past decade, become the greatest 3rd baseman of all time, and spend your entire career as a Met. Is that too much to ask?
Here's some suggestions for a name:
"I CAN be Wright all the time"
"David Wright: Itsmetsforme's bestest Friend"
"Barehanding It with David Wright"
Finally, which catch was better, your bare handed one last year, or A-Hern's April 5th one? Cmon, you can be honest.
yours truly,

Number 5,
First of all I would like to thank you for being a perfect example for how the game is supposed to be played. Have fun, work hard, play for the team. I am 25 and coach a team of 9-12 year old kids and i hope to instill the same values on them and it makes it much easier when you have a pro player as an perfect example. I have been a die hard mets fan since birth and I am pretty sure I was the only one in Philly Stadium last year early in the season rockin a Wright jersey. Anyway thank you for all that you do for the team and the league you are a true professional. I know you are real busy but our team would love to hear from you if you get a chance to email I will make sure they read it. Keep up the good work and thanks again.

Great game(Friday 7th) David. The best at bat you had was the baase-hit with an 0-2 count. You definetly are a class act here in NY and Loved by us all ! Hopefully we sign you to a long term contract and you end your career as a Met ! If we ever saw you in any other uniform it would be a crime. Stay healthy, see you at shea David!!

I caught a baseball you hit in San Diego during BP. Life-long Mets fan, and I was handing a ball to a little kid when it hit the Petco warning track, spun up and hit my right in the jaw. Not missing a beat I snagged it.
I didn't care that it had hit me, I immediately thought, "David Wright just hit this."
I was very happy, and I'm going to try and make it to Chicago(I live in Minneapolis now for Law School) and get you to sign the baseball.
Thank you so much for hitting that baseball, you made my day. You're my favorite ballplayer and keep on giving it your all, it always impresses me that you hustle so much.
Go Mets!

You're having a great start to the season, as are the Mets. I'm so excited for this year it should be a good one. I think that the name of your blog should be either "Telling it the Wright Way" or "On The Witght Track"

David,
You should definitely call your blog "The Wright Stuff" as others before me have stated. I believe you have the potential to be a very, very "special" player. You certainly have the talent. Now, it's just a question of how hard you're willing to work. I think you can be as terrific a player as you want to be. Good luck and all the best to you.

Hey David,
Great start to the season. I want to thank you again for something you did a few years back. During Spring Training 2004 I sent you a baseball card and you were kind enough to sign it and send it back. I consider it one of the best cards in my collection. Have you ever checked out ebay and your cards? A few months back one of your Bowman chrome auto rookie cards sold for $250. You are one of my son's favorite players because you wear his favorite # (who knew 4 year olds had favorite numbers).
How about "Wright Here, Wright Now" as the name for your blog?

Hey David,
I am a die hard Mets fan and you are my favorite player. By the way Congrats on an AMAZING 2005 season. I think the Mets are on their way to the NL Pennant this season. Ever since I started watching Mets' games with my parents in 1992 (was a baby) I've loved watching those games ever since. Here's an idea for your blog "Wright Here, Wright Now". I'm glad that you say that New York fans are the best fan in the world. That's because we have such an awesome team and awesome players. You gotta give Willie his props right??. =) and the #5 has been my favorite # for a while. Ever since I saw you play towards the end of the 2004 season you became my favorite player.

I am a 28 year old female from Philadelphia and possibly the biggest Mets fan in the world. You have quickly become my favorite player, maybe of all time. Last night I was in the kitchen for one of your hits and my husband call that, "Wright got another hit." I said, "Does he ever not get a hit?" You are awesome. Your attitude and work ethic make people like you even more. I think, and pray, that you are going to be a leader for the Mets for many years to come. Keep up the great work!

David, you are awesome!!!!!!! Congratulations on your amazing 2005 season. You put up great numbers, like 27 home runs, .306 batting average, 102 r.b.i.'s. You led the Mets in most of the offensive categories. Every Mets fan is right, when they shout "MVP," because without a doubt, you will be MVP, and the Mets will win their 3rd World Series. I have been a Mets fan my whole life. I have had so many favorite players (Mike Piazza, John Olerud, etc.,) but you are without a doubt my number 1 favorite. I have so much David Wright stuff, my sister thinks I'm crazy! I have 2 t-shirts, a jersey (real, not a knock-off,) and a scrapbook, full of pictures, articles, a ticket that you autographed, tickets from other stadiums that I've visited, and a picture of me when I had "NY Mets #5" tatooed on my back! You are the coolest and nicest guy! My dad got me tickets for my birthday, so on August 5, 2006, I'll be spending my 18th birthday with the Mets. Congratulations on your 2 homers so far, and good luck with the 2006 season!

David, I met you Scottsdale, Az during your Fall League days. My daughter lives in Chesapeake and we talked for awhile. Followed you in Double A and was to see you play for the Tides on a vacation and you were called up to the big club a week before my visit. Great that you are doing well with Met's but I told everyone when I first met you that you were someone to watch, and you had a great career ahead. I know you are still fan friendly and that won't change as your folks did an outstanding job raising you. My brother went to Florida Southern and we will follow your brothers career there too. Hope to see you out here when you play the D Backs. Best of luck this year,

Hi David,
First off, congratulations on an awesome start to the season!! You guys look great out there, it's been so fun to watch the team really come together to score runs and win over these first few games. Please know that we as Mets fans love and respect you not only for what you bring to the game as a player, but also for everything you bring to the clubhouse, how you treat your fans, what you do on the outside for the organization, and how you handle your personal life in the New York spotlight. You are a class act and I think I speak for all Mets fans when I say that it would be a privilege to see you in the Mets uniform for many many years to come!!
As for the name of your blog, how about something ala SNL like "Live from NY it's #5".

Hey David. I'm a huge fan of yours. Ever since the Mets drafted you out of College, I knew that you were going to be a solid contributor to the organization. I live in Florida but I have been a Mets fan for as long as I can remember. I was lucky enough, last season, to make it to one your games against the Braves at Shea. I had seats right next to the Braves dugout. But keep up all the great work and I am sure all of you guys will be sporting a World Series ring for the beginning of next season. Oh, tell Reyes I said "hey". Just humor me, thanks. And how about, "The Wright Stuff" don't know if you've heard that one of not.

Hi David-
Great start to the season from one David to another. I'm a 33-year-old lifelong Met fan. I grew up in New York but was transplanted to Denver so I catch all the games on MLB Extra Innings now (it's great to be able to watch SNY out here!) and catch all the Mets games when they play at Coor's Field (already have my tickets for August).
It was great watching you come on so strong in the 2nd half last year and can't wait to see you develop further in '06 into a legit M.V.P. candidate and hopefully help us make a long playoff run. Any thoughts on the hit batsmen and the bench-clearing incident in the Nats game Thursday night? The fact that Mets pitchers are willing to pitch guys tight along with the fire and commitment to each other I've seen so far really reminds me of '86 and the passion they all played with.
For the blog title, how about "Read from Wright to Left."
Good luck, David!

I'm glad that you decide to make a blog like a star who knows that without the fans, you're just a regular guy. Anyway, I currently live in Florida, but born a New Yorker and have never given up on the Mets. I've heard them all about how the Mets will never be World Series champs, and I know we had a chance during the Subway Series. It should have been ours, but with showing the fans that the team wants to win the big one, that's what's going to get the championship, Heart and Desire!!

Hi David,
My Dad has been a Met fan since the beginning(1962-he was 9), and I have followed in his footsteps. This is great that you are keeping in touch with the fans like this. As a young player, has the transition to a huge market like NYC been tough on you(you seem to handle it extremely well)? Keep doing what you do, and my Dad sends along the thought that he hopes you'll stay as grounded as you are now; he says it's such a refreshing thing to see! Good luck in 2006! Lets go METS!

Words can't possibly express how excited I am for this season. I've been a Mets fan since the day I was born in New York and remain one while I am currently living in Virginia (as a JMU senior).
Last year was a particularly difficult one for me, and I got through it with the help of your games. The apartment I was subletting cut off their internet and TV for the summer, so I typically spent about 15 hours a week in Panera watching your games on my laptop. I definitely got some funny looks when I couldn't help but respond to a couple of plays and calls out loud, but hey--it got me through.
Congratulations on the beginnings of a great season--and I can't wait to see it continue. :-) Stay healthy.

Hey David! I'm Jess, and pretty much I am a HUGE Mets fan. I'm totally in love with you. When I saw you down in Port St. Lucie, and you gave me your autograph, i was SO excited. i was shaking and crying with excitement! I am SO excited for this season and I anticipate the team making it far into the playoffs. Sure, there are a few weeknesses, but we have a strong line-up with guys like yourself, Cliff Floyd and Carlos Delgado. What do you think is the Mets biggest "weakness", now that you have played these first 4 games?
Congratulations on the beginnings of a great season, and good luck the rest of the year!
Best Wishes!

I'm not one for over the top gushing, but there is an excitement when you and Jose Reyes are on the field that is absolutely contagious. I see it in the fans, and I see it in your teammates. It's been great fun to watch the team gel this year. I really appreciate you and Clifford (the Big Red Dog) having Beltran's back the other night. Those of us who know the game are not booing anyone - not even JJ after his blow-up the other night. He'll get it together.

hi david,
welcome to the world of blogging! as a fellow blog writer i am glad to have you in our ranks. the key to good blog writing is getting personal about it. people seem to like that. you can also develop a blog personna...this allows you to develop a whole new image when entering the kingdom of blog. so far on the blogging you're batting .500.
on the baseball playing you get 1.000. i've been hyping your skills since may of last year, and you have lived up to that hype every day...especially with that bare-handed hit-stealing grab last year (totally amazing!...by the way, how did the rest of the team react to that? they looked as amazed as i was.)
on the blog title, someone suggested "wright off the bat." i like that. i also thought of "wright along the left field line." maybe "future-hall-of-fame blog?" how about, "MLB's most eligible bachelor blog?"
anyway, i'll make it to shea a few times this year, and i'm usually on the third base line. you'll hear a few shout outs coming from my direction (probably something along the lines of "david wright is the best baseball player ever!") keep up the great work!

How you doin,
I have been a Mets fan since 84 when I was watching Straw and Gooden break into the league. With their struggles growing up in NY with Drugs and alcohol its great to see you and Reyes as the next crop of Mets that will dominate the league for a decade like the Mets of the late 80's to early nineties. I can't wait to see Humber, Milledge and Pelfrey come up in the near future. Tell Beltran that the "real" fans are behind him 100% and we cant wait to see how much damage the lineup is going to do for the whole season.
Also I respect the way you go with the pitches you are dealt and even though you were robbed by Reed Yesterday, keep going the other way. You have a great amount of power to the opposite field.
I was behind home plate when you made that catch in SD last year. Even Padre fans were high fiven us.

Hey david!, I'm New Jersey and I am a big fan of you-even when mike piazza ruled my world as my favorite met. I play or should I say played softball. I played for 2 years in HS and is a Junior in HS. I was a catcher, 2nd baseman, shortstop and a 3rd baseman. So every time I played there at 3rd, I'd be known as the little David Wright because I had quick hands like you and always wore the number 5. I am also a big mets fan. So is my family but I'm always watching the games and updating my dad during the afternoon games. He works on NYSE. He has seen you on the floor by the way. He says some players are monsters and he's 6'2. My dad says you can hit. Hands down no doubt about it you are. I like what you're doing at the dish and on the field. I always come to at least one game during the season and that's when my brothers are home from college and I still have school =[! I honestly think you are the best Met player-besides every other met. Name your Blog "The Wright Way to think" something catchy. Or how about "New York is Wright" or "The Wright Stuff"-which has been used as article titles. It's up to you. But my friend is jealous you're on the Mets. Oh yeah, I loved your Derek Jeter Play going into the stands. And the barehanded play--which I couldn't get enough of. You're a really good player and keep up your good work.

WRIGHT METS @ WRIGHT TIME
I don't want Brian Banister carrying Cliff's bags. 1) They are too heavy and he can pull a muscle; I don't want him to get even his feelings hurt. 2) Floyd has a strong arm but he can't pitch! 3) Bannister is bowling them over like pins. Isn't that Wright? Now, if you were thinking Wright, you would get Anderson to carry the "Wright" bags; yours! Then he can be under your tutelage (Schooling him) on the Wright way to hit both the ball and the League pitchers (Video tape the Pitchers and Keep notes so you can make the Wright adjustments during the season. The Scouts are traveling ahead watching and keeping their notes on The Mets.
Hernandez will get the Gold Glove for defense but he needs to put up "Offensive" not offensive numbers "Andersoon."
The Mets need a Captain on the infield (I hope the Wright choice is made) to keep everyone's head in the game; keep the outfielders on their toes; advance scout the pitchers so there can be a hitting approach to the Starters with the intention of running up their pitch count and knocking them out early by also putting up "Crooked numbers," exploiting their weakness and disrupting their game. Closers are changing the length of the game so it behooves you to tape and study them. They don't change their game so once you know them build a computer simulator at the new stadium and Tradition Field also establish a team sprit; approach; voice and Franco's leadership. The Mets should introduce Mike Pelfry slowly as a "Stopper" which would prepair him for starter in the rotation. As The Stopper he can come in around the 6th inning if the Starter gets in trouble. Imagine; Introducing #41 Mike Pelfry; the stopper of pillaging and plunder.
I spoke to Media Relations about Cliff's dream of bringing baseball back to the "Hood" and I suggested an Internship Program for each series so his Intern carry his bags; Wright?

Hey David, great start so far.
I know you're very humble when it comes to personal accolades, but chants of MVP!MVP!MVP! will be well deserved by the end of the season.
As for the new name for the blog, how about....The "Wrighteous" Corner

Hey David! I am originally from Rochester, NY and am a lifetime Met Fan transplanted to St. Petersburg, Florida. I just wanted to say I have been a huge fan of yours all the way through the system and up into the big leagues. Your work ethic and maturity are obvious and are certainly paying off and will continue to. I play a free fantasy league and someone else drafted before I did and ended up getting you in their first round selection so I traded for you. =) Good move on my part to draft my favorite player. Hopefully the Mets will be smart and keep you around for years to come. HINT HINT to Omar! ;)
I absolutely love reading your blog, what a wonderful idea! If you wonder what people would like to hear about, I for one would love to hear more about some of the supersititions, practical jokes that take place and your thought processes of how you go about the game. I don't know if you've read it or not but Mex (Keith Hernandez) wrote a book "If At First..." was hilarious and very insightful) I could definitely picture you one day writing a book of your own. As for what to call your blog- "David Writes", "Wrightings", "Met's Memoirs", "David's Diary", "Wright" On?
Best wishes for this season and many years to come! :)

DAVID! Not that you'd remember, but you signed a pair of baseballs for me at your first home game during Spring Training - I'm 21 years old and I felt like I was 6 just being able to stand next to you! My sisters think you're the hottest man they've ever seen - but since there's only one of you, the younger of the two found it fair that she'd take Paul Lo Duca - even if he is a distant second to you in hotness. We all wish you the best of luck this season, as we will be watching from our MLB.TV webcasts with our Wright jerseys on!
Sincerely,
The Ajrams
Oh, and as an idea for a name for your blog... how about, "David Wrighting On Baseball"? I thought it would be good, haha!
AND, tell Carlos Beltran that the real fans are behind him - we know what he's capable of and we stand behind him as a consummate professional. Thank you for everything, David; you're a superhero in this household!

Hi, I just wanting to thank you for spending your time doing something like this. It's really nice to know that you appreciate us fans, as much as we appreciate you.
By the way, you're doing really well so far in the season- stay like this, and we're headed to the World Series!

Hi David, 1st let me say that I have been a Mets Fan since "85" and my favorite Met Alltime is Howard Johnson so you have no idea the pleasure I get watching you come up though the farm system having the success you are having knowing that "HOJO" was one of your mentors. I can only imagine how proud he must be of you. On another note I must ask are you aware of the major crushes many young female Mets fans have on you including my 15 year old daughter :). I wish you nothing but the best in your career. Even though we have never met, from what I have seen you are a very honest and humble man with a great head on your shoulders. Dont ever change.
Oh and as far as a name how bout "WRIGHT ON"

Hey David,
Big fan.
I think a good name for your blog should be simply "WRIGHT TO THE CORE". It basically says what you're doing by giving us an inside track on your experiences.
I have a question: If you weren't an MLB player what do ou think you would have done as a career?

Hey David,
I have been a fan of yours since my senior year in high school (I'm a soph in college now) when I went to a Triple-A game in Syracuse and you signed a baseball for me before the game. I had read some things about how great you would be, so I had to meet you. Even better though, you got called up to the Mets the day before the game that I had tickets to, and I saw your first big league hit. I'm expecting to catch an opposite field homer on June 27th in Fenway, I'll be cheering you on from the bleachers. Thanks again for all you do for your fans, on and off the field.
-Kyle
P.S. My girlfriend is a Yankees fan and she always tells me her 3rd baseman is better than mine. I know she's wrong, but I'm expecting you to prove it to her this year.

You are sure to be a hall of famer, blessed with extraordinary skills and an even better personality and passion for the game.

Hey David,
Im a 17 year old junior in high school playing my first year of varsity baseball. My season just started but its already exciting... Today we played a doubleday field in Cooperstown, and later on in the season we get to play at Nyseg stadium (the home of the Binghamton Mets). I've been a huge fan of yours ever since i saw you play for the B-Mets. Its very impressive how you are a 2 strike hitter, and i was wondering if there are any tips you could give on hitting in a "pitcher friendly" situation. Good luck this season, Ill try to make it out for a few games this season.

Great to find this blog. As a fellow lifelong Mets fan I read anything that I can find in regard to our team. Your thoughts on the club will be a required addtion to that. Looking forward to making the first trip to Shea Stadium this summer. My son and I are traveling out this June. A bit of a commute for two guys in Indiana, but one we have talked about for 10 years.
I have seen this listed several times here but I do like "The Wright Stuff" as your blog name. Seems to play off the Mercury space program book and later film. Our young Mets seem to parallel that in building what will become a very special thing for many years to come.
Let's go knock off those evil Braves!

Hey David, I'm a Dodger fan but I find myself checking your stats everyday. I guess its because I grew up right by you. I went to Kempsville class of 2001 while you were over in Hickory. I still have the newspaper for All-Tidewater Team for 2000 and 2001 with you on the page.Can I get an autograph on it? lol j/k. I remember reading your stats when I first saw the page. Batting around .500 I believe. I thought to myself, this guy is definately going to go far. I dont know if you remember a guy named Ricky Henderson that went to Great Bridge but he said he knew you. He used to work with me. He said you always had a great head on your shoulders in highschool.
It must be a dream come true to be able to not only play in the show but to be able to play AAA in your backyard. I've seen you the last 2 seasons at Shea when I went to see LA play, I also saw you guys play in Vero Beach in 2005. Even though I've always been rooting for LA in my Dodger jersey, I've really been hoping to see you do well. I'm hoping to go see you play in NY again this summer, probably wont be against the Dodgers so this time I'll definately be able to wear your jersey. Good luck the rest of the season. A fine start to the 2006 season for you. I'll be looking forward to seeing you play in Pittsburgh this July.

I jus had a steller idea.
Two Lefts make a Wright
It sounds like such a common saying, but think about it
You round 1st base, and you take a left to 2nd base
You round 2nd base, and take a left towards 3rd.
And who stands at third base?
We can all answer that one

Hello David,
My name is Joan, I live in Connecticut and I go way back with the Mets. Right to the beginning in 1962.
I've heard you on WFAN and you are a fine spokesman for your team and Major League Baseball. Your game keeps showing improvement, so I can tell that you are working hard. There are years of experience on your team with some of the players and with your coaches and the Manager. Listen and learn from them.
Here in CT, we are having a problem getting the Mets TV games. Many cable systems, including mine - Cox Cable - are not carrying the SNY channel and ESPN is blacking out the games. I'm carrying on a campaign by email, etc. to get some coverage.
In the meantime, WFAN provides an excellent radio team - Tom McCarthy, Howie Rose, and Eddie Coleman. I just wish that I could see that big smile on your face as you round the bases.
"Getting it Wright" sounds fine to me.
Good luck, stay healthy and keep your wonderful attitude.

David,
There was Tom Seaver and Darryl Strawberry then Doc Gooden, but you are the real Franchise Player. I feel the Mets should make you a lifetime player to this organization and set you up with a contract to remain a Met until you are ready to retire in another 15-18 years from now. I knwo thats hard to d, but they should atleast ensure the fans that you will be here for atleast the next 10-12 years. You are the real deal and I know you will be the first MET to win a MVP award. I plan to make sure that I spend plenty of time stuffing the ballot box for your nomination to the allstar game.David, Keep up the GREAT ATTITUDE AND PASSION FOR THE GAME, FOR THE MET ORGNIZATION AND FOR NYC. YOU ARE THE STAR ON THIS TEAM AND YOU SHOULD HAVE ANDERSON HERNANDEZ CARRRY YOUR BAG, SOMETHING MIGHT RUB OFF SO HE CAN HIT TOO.

I also wanted to saw you would have been a much better pick for the WBC you would have made USA win! You are definately my favortie player! Like another blogger said you are like the REAL franchise player ( well you and Jose)you guys give life to the Mets and keep us loyal fans watching every night and day. I also wanted to say last year when MSG and Time Warner cable had a dispute, I remember my cousin calling (who lives near NYC)and saying this Wright guy has the cutest smile and its sooo true! Your the best 3rd baseman we've ever had on the Mets. Keep bombing them for me ! also I wanted to say you and the Mets have the talent an pitching to carry the team to the World Series!

For weeks, everyone’s been asking me what I wanted my birthday and joking around I told them “All I want is for David Wright to hit a homerun on my birthday” Friday night I come home and turn on the game and you’re up at bat. The first pitch I see BAM, you go yard. I was going insane. Three of my friends called me and were like “WRIGHT HIT A HOMERUN ON YOUR BIRTHDAY!” How crazy is that? I love you and Floyd. I love all the Mets especially Julio Franco. I hope you guys have a great season. Thanks for making my birthday extra special.

Dear David Wright
You have a great attitude,magnificent skills at the plate, and one of the top 3rd baseman in the game. Thanks to you and other players (such as Cliff Floyd, who deserved to have more votes to be a participant in the All-Star game) I know we are going to win the East. When I get to the plate for my Babe Ruth team I think of your flawless mechanics. You will have an amazing season this year and everyone has taken notice to your hot start. I am a devoted fan watch every game I can. I am so happy that you guys are on SNY (instead of MSG which blackouted alot of important games) and I cant wait to see the team when you face the Brewers and the Red Sox. Since you asked for suggestions for your blog this was my idea, "The Wright Year, The Wright Time"

Off to an amazing start. It feels so good to see your guys record at 3-1 already. Being a 3rd baseman myself,in softball that is, I know what it's like to have the balls hit hard & fast at you, maybe not as fast and hard as you see it, but you know. Watching you play 3rd, with the enthusiasm&intensity that you have makes it so much more better. Keep doing what you do best!

Hi!
Surprise! I'm another one of those female, david_wright_and_the_mets fan. My brother got me interested in baseball and the mets in particular when I was about 13, and I've only gotten to like the game more and more since then (to the bewilderment of many friends). Your addition to the team a couple of years ago added so much incredible energy to the mets - it's great! I think it's incredible that you manage to keep it so real and not get carried away by the fame, and I especially love that you yourself grew up a met fan, and know exactly how us crazy fans feel about the team! I don't know if you intend to answer the questions here, but just in case, here's mine: I've always been curious if, in theory, you could see yourself spending your whole career here in NY (with the mets of course)? I know it's not always in your control, and it's hard to project that far ahead, but do you think it would get too boring to stay in one place, or would you be happy to stay here?

I know it's not always in your control, and it's hard to project that far ahead, but do you think it would get too boring to stay in one place, or would you be happy to stay here?
No original blog name ideas, but I liked wrightings and wright here, wright now. Good luck this season and make us all proud to be mets fans!

David, Try "Wright Place to Be", "Wright in the Heart of NY", "Wright Man for the Job". These are just a few for now.
Thank you for taking the time to write and share with us fans what goes on in the clubhouse. This year, we have a great team that can do something very special. We have the "Wright" pieces (no pun intended) to win it all.

Congrats on having a great first season- making the defensive play of the year is enough to make any player proud! All winter I've also been keeping track of all the moves made by the front office, and are looking forward to having the team going deep into the post season!
Now, I was born the year of the "Miracle Mets"(yeah, I know that gives away my age)- and have been a NYM fan since way before the Buckner game. O.K, I'll admit to rooting for the Braves for a long time as well, but since 03, I don't have to split loyalties anymore- thanks to good ol' 47.
I pray the organization has enough sense to keep the new "face" of the Mets around for a long, long time, although it's a tough town to play in, and living under a magnifying glass can't be easy, but as long as you stick to Homer and not pull a Benson..... ; }
Anyway, I will be rooting for y'all at my very fist visit to Shea-and NY- on the 15th, and extra loud in Philly on 5/11- (couln't think of a better way to spend my b-day)! GOOOOOO Mets!
p.s.- will You be taking the "new" kids out to dinner now?

Keep your head down...and 'on straight' and you'll be 'a legend' around the Metroploitan are someday too! I miss 'Mike' too! A real class act. You remind me of Mike! Anyway...GODD LUCK!

Hey David,
I always catch myself making sure I see when your up at bat. By the way good luck with this blog thing, it was a good idea to keep in touch with the humungous population of your fans! You are an amazing baseball player and you have yet to do better. I was there the day you premiered in the major league and couldn't believe what great talent you have. I love how you jump into people instead of giving them a highfive, it laways makes me laugh. This season your playing great so far keep up the great work. I also have an idea for the title of your blog, how do you like "Gettign out the bad with the Wright" or "Taking in the bad and replacing it with the Wright"

David,
Just wanted to say it has been a pleasure watching the Mets so far. As it always is usually for the first few games and then... well you know. I dont know what it is but this year has a nice feel to it. Great hitting so far by the team and you and Jose Reyes are refreshing to watch and from the looks of it Jose matured a great deal at the plate over one winter. It was a little funny watching him swing at balls over his head last year. Keep up the good work and we'll see you guys at the games and in the post-season. Heck, you guys keep up half of what you are doing and I'll see you guys at the ticker tape parade.
Good Luck.
PS. Tell Beltran to laugh off the fools that are booing him.

David,
I'm a transplanted Mets fan in Washington State who attended all three Mets games at Safeco last year. First, thanks for signing my baseball and Mets hat...you signed them the same day you made that spectacular catch, flying into the stands. The Mariners fans all around us were like: "Wow! That was one of the greatest catches I've ever seen!" You got a nice round of applause from the people in our section over left field--it was awesome. It was a real honor meeting you, and it made us feel proud, the way the Mariners fans showed their appreciation for your amazing play.
As for the name of your blog...the Beatle John Lennon published a book of zany poems and things and he called it "In His Own Write." Maybe "In His Own Wright"...or "In My Own Wright"? Whatever you decide to call it, it's extremely cool of you to do this for the fans, and that's one of the things we love about you: the way you go the extra mile and make yourself available, even though the demands are endless. I just hope we don't burn you out! Have fun on the field and enjoy your career...we sure enjoy watching you play.

Hey David,
My name is Rob and I have been a Mets fan since I can remember. I remember when the Mets got rid of Ty Wigginton to bring you up. I think that was one of the best moves the Mets have made in a long time. I am 17 years old and I looking forward to watching you play. You are already my favorite Met. I always root and cheer for you and am happy when you do well. I haven't helped but notice that you are an excellent hitter, and if you could just e-mail me or ssomething to let me know just how you do it, just gieve me a few little pointers. I would greatly apriciate it. Thank-you.
From,
Rob

Hey David,
I've been a Met fan since 1985, and I must say that this year's team is strong, from top to bottom, and as such, maybe a WC is not out of the question.
My sugeestion: David Does it Wright.
I only suggest this because whenever I watch the game with my father, or my buds, everyone mentions, myself included, how you play the game the way it should be, fundamentally sound, and with the exuberance of a little leaguer stepping between the lines for the first time.
Thanks,
Ray

Hey David,
I am 14 years old and you have been my favorite player ever since you came up with the mets. I play 3rd base on an all Long Island team and I work hard every day to get better. My parents always say that if I want to go far in baseball, that I should have an attitude like yours and play like you and I think that they're right.
You're the Greatest. Have a great season.

Hey David nice page...ive been a met fan ever since you joined the team! I know you probably heard of myspace, well my entire background is you and im just about to make my whole page dedicated to you! if youre reading this check out my myspace at www.myspace.com/angiebabiegirl ^_^ you're just the most awsome baseball player ive ever seen. You're the main reason why im really into baseball...i guess you can say im like a crazy fan girl or something like that lol i've got pictures of you everywhere in my room and im a drawer and i love drawing you, youre everywhere in my room im just such a big fan!! ^_^ I love watching you play because you know how to play the game and you have so much passion for it it's overwhelming. Youre such a good role model for all the rookies and even the veterans of baseball...I've been wanting to play baseball more because i play other sports like hockey and soccer, so if you have any tips for a new player like me that would be nice...you are simply amazing and you know what you're doing all the time. it must be hard living up to the mets fans expectations...we can be a little harsh sometimes. i lived in Ny all my life but i moved to Indiana in November so now i cant watch you play every day. ='(
As for your blog i like the name you have, or something like "David knows what's Wright", or "David: The Wright Pick for the Mets" i like the second one better, what do you think? I think its cool you have your own blog for all your fans! LETS GO METS!

I'm am old timer (53) Mets fan who first saw the team in 1963 at the Polo grounds. I still have the Mets "Bobble-head" I bought that day. My favorite Mets of all time are Wayne Garret, Howard Johnson, Edgardo Alfonso (do you see where I'm going with this?) I bought my David Wright #5 shirt during the winter.
My suggestion for your blog title comes from Thomas Wolfe, "The Wright Stuff".

David,
I'm a lifelong Astros fan, so I can't say that the Mets are my favorite team. That being said, I enjoy watching you (personally) play and I wish you well (perhaps just not against the Astros, eh?). I think it's great that you've decided to blog and I hope you keep it up throughout the season. My suggestion for your blog title:
"Wrightly So"
Good luck this season. And wish Billy Wagner well from the folks in Houston. I wouldn't trade Brad Lidge for anyone, but my heart broke the day Billy left us.

David:
I'd like to second a few of the ones already suggested.
"Wright's Stuff" is my fav thus far with possibly "Wrighter's Blog" being a second....(it's actually a variation on the "Writer's Block" suggestion).
Anyway, I'm a life long Met's fan... Been coming to Shea since 1964 when my Uncle who was a long time Dodger Fan began dragging me there at the tender age of 4. I'll never forget the '69 series, I attended the '73 World Series (game 4...awesome). I still owe my soul to the lord for the promises made during the last three at bats in Game 6 of the '86 series. It's been a lot of years since I was as excited about our prospects as this year.
Hope you guys can stay healthy and give it a great ride.
Thanks for bringing back some pride and stability, I think the Mets have the best infield (particularly on the left side...) in Baseball.
Good luck this season, you're off to a great start.

Hey David! It's steph again. I was reading over my comment-and I am so nuts about english since I am really good in it and in Honors English-and noticed that I have some sentences without a word that would make the snetence have sense. If that sentence makes any sense. What ana amazing team the mets are. I honestly think that Mets fans are the worst fans 'cause we'll be as cruel as possible but still love it when a met hits. By the way. I have a xanga where I update once in a while. I'm probably going to update later on this week since I have spring break. It's www.xanga.com/lilkissinggirlie. If you want to check it out. I also have a myspace where in my pics I have a pic up of you. My friend calls me crazy cause I know a lot about you. I even know how many HRS you hit and how many RBIS you had last season. So if you want to check it out to see if I am not joking just e-mail me. (By the way I meant to say I am from NJ.) I'm going stop bothering you. So keep up the good work. You're going to be a hall of famer-if not you're one to me now and later.

I think your a great player and admire the way you handle yourself on and off the field. I was born a Met fan back in 84 and my interest and loyalty in the team grows more each year (especially after I started working for the club).
I think they team is amazing and I have been looking forward to this season all winter. I can't wait to get back home to NY after college this summer to get to some of the games.
Keep up the great work, have fun and good luck!

Hi David,
My name is Robby and I am 11 years old. I live in NY, and I have been a huge fan of the Mets all my life! You are also my favorite player! I just finished watching the your game againts the Marlins. Nice 2 RBI triple, and great job on hitting the sac fly to bring in Beltran. If you hadn't hit the triple, you guys probably wouldn't have won the game. I realized that if the line drive was hit a little bit harder, you would of had an inside the park homerun! Your 3 RBI's were also the only runs for the Mets. You are a great player and you are going to be the next Albert Pujols! I hope to be watching you guys until the end of October! 4-1 is a great start to the season. You are awsome, and keep up the great work!

David,
Congragulations on your successful season in the bigs. I'm a Portsmouth native and Mets fan via the Tides. I work at the Virginia Sports Hall of Fame and when ever you get the time and you are home again it would be cool if you could visit the museum. I talked to the director about getting you a space in one of the active athlete cases on the second floor. He said he would try to contact you to get some memorabilia. I don't want to step on any toes, but I think the kids of Virginia, and Hampton Roads would love to check out your case and become baseball, Met, and David Wright fans. If you have anything to donate I'm sure the museum will appricate it. I wish you and all the entire Met orginzation well for this season.

hi David,
I've been a big mets fan since i was born because i was born the last time the Mets won the world series. I love the mets and this year the team is going to go far. I am a really big fan of yours some of my friends say its a little bit too much but I called it dedication. I live in the Bronx, which is home to the horrible other baseball team and have to live around all annoying yankees fan, but one thing that they cannot say is anyting bad about you. You are an amazing player and person. In my local paper there was a article about how you sent a dying woman a baseball and it just shows how much you care and respect Mets fans. I actually met you once and it was the highlight of my life. I'm already telling everyone I know that your gonna win MVP this year because you are starting out really good. I hope to see you soon in Flushing. Also,I wanted to ask if there is anyway i can send a carepackage to Shea so you can get it? And also i think the title of the blog is fine. Lets go Mets. 2006 . 20 years later.

im a 14 year old huge mets fan who thinks you are a beast. i wouldnt trade you even for a rod b/c you just bring more energy and are a hero just born to be a player like derek jeter. so far you are already having a good year and im looking forward to many more. please just dont become an egocentric money hungry player in the future and i know you wont. i think you have good instincts and id like to see you attempt more steals b/c you get great jumps when you do. other than that your game is great! anyway i think a good name for your blog would be 2006, IT FEELS RIGHT. good luck on the season.

I, like the 284 previous folks commenting here, think that you are an outstanding player and I really appreciate your work ethic and commitment to the team.
As far as a title for your blog, I'm solidly with those who recommend that you avoid the cheesy Wright/right puns. And I really like the "David Wright's Hot Corner" suggestions.
Keep doing what you're doing and you (and the NY Mets) will have a great season.

Great hitting so far, you are looking really good beginning the season. hitting to right field has been great and I have enjoy watching you do it to move runners over or winning the game with it. How about "5WrightMVP" Your skills speak very loud for a great season for the Mets this year

Hey David,
I was at the game today and I have to say that was great hitting today. You came through in the clutch- twice! It must feel good to have knocked in every run for your team and they come out with a win. RBI in the same game. If you need a name for your blog, how about "Wright Writes."

Hi David... my names Kristi, im a HUGE met fan... i actually have the met symbol tattooed on my arm. Im so happy to have you on my team, i love your energy and the way you cheer on the team! Not to mention your outstanding skills in the field! I hope i have the pleasure of watching you play at Shea for a long time to come! :)

Hi David,
I think you should name your blog "Wright's Homer".
My dad said you were going to be something special. He is right, you are! My dad and I went to your first game, he said years from now I can say I was at David Wright's first game, and I am glad I can say that. I also saw your barehanded catch live (my dad was sleeping), and I was at opening day. All these games prove that you are an amazin' player, and you just keep getting better. Keep up the good work, and stay healthy. I hope you stay in New York for many more years to come. So does my younger brother, who says he wants to be the next David Wright (he has been playing since he was a year and a half...so hopefully he has a shot). Sorry its long.

No. 5,
You sure have your work cut out for you reading all of these comments. I hope you have some help. i'll keep it short and sweet. I love the way you play. You go out there everyday and play your butt off. You don't come off as having an ego, and you appreciate us fans. Thank you. Good luck this season.
Here's my suggestion for a title for your blog. I don't know if it has been mentioned, but I think a great name would be "Balls and Strikes" It pretty much sums up the season, life, and baseball. We all go through ups and downs...balls and strikes.
That's my 2 cents. Again, thanks for giving us this forum to communicate, good luck, and GO METS!!!

wazzup David,
I saw you play at a game at Safeco Field last year. Before the game, you signed my baseball(Which by the way is up on the shelf in my room.) I thought to myself "This is a guy with class." Later in the game, you made a diving grab into the seats.(I hope that didnt hurt too much.)Watching you play is like watching something good go into our good ol' pastime. I love how you are able to go out there everyday and experience the sights and sounds. I hope that as you sit down and read this, that all you put through everyday on and off the field makes the kind of person you are. In my eyes, that is a wonderful role-model. Keep up da awesome work!
Here's an idea.

Hey David -
First, a blog name, I think we have a winner.
WRIGHT AND WRONG
Metsblog started giving away blogs and we JUST started it:
http://wrightandwrong.metsblog.com/
But the name is all yours, we'll change our name. Got some good pics of ya at Bankee stadium and Spring training as well.
I'm a lifelong, diehard Mets fan, older than most people commenting here (28). Also a member of the rational minority in NYC as well as beaching every summer on the OBX so we're very familiar with your hometown Hampton Roads area very well.
Let me commend you on your talent, devotion to the game, pure skill, and most of all, POISE. You are truly the exception to the rule and I think I speak for everybody in saying that we hope you never, ever leave.
You've set an amazing example for a NY baseball player in your involvement with the community and the fans, so it's just amazing to see you blogging on top of that. It can be a pain but keep it up, the pulse of the Mets nation as of this year is officially online as much as it is at Shea.
So now you've got some SERIOUS protection around you, LET'S GO METS!!!!!!!!

Hey David,
Great job this season. Keep it up. As for the name for your blog, everyone's got it all wrong. Trying to make a pun out of any part of your name is lame.
Since your blog deals with you, the Mets and baseball, it should be call "The Hot Corner."
Enough said.
Besides, GO METS!

You're hot, you're great at baseball, and you worry about not sounding dorky with your blog name. You are quite possibly God's gift to female Mets fans. I'll be catching a White Sox game when you guys are here this summer. Look me up? ;-)

Yo David,
You guys have kick-butt talent and i see no reason why you shouldnt go deep this year.Usually, its just a matter of getting through the "jelling" stage. But it seems to me that you guys are already past that stage, which is the hardest thing to get past. If you read this, please tell Anderson Hernandez to keep going at it. We really appreciate his defense and we know his hitting will kick in soon enough. I read that during the off season and spring training you were working on it. I see your defense has much improved from last year, though im sure a target like Delgado makes it much easier for you infielders.
Good Luck this year and as we say at the stadium.... "Yankees #$%^!"

P.S. : Im not one to be creative, but i think a god name for your blog would be "The Wright Perspective". Makes sense to me, hope you like it!

Hey David,
I have to say first and foremost, I'm in DC. I've grown up in NJ though, and was a Met fan since '86 when I was 6 years old. Usually, my favorite Met is someone obscure because of something I saw them do. Alex Ochoa and Melvin Mora because they gunned people out at first, Lee Mazzilli because he signed a baseball... You quickly became my favorite player when I took a bunch of my frineds that are Nats fans to a Mets-Nats game on 9/24 last year for my birthday, and you hit a grand slam in the first inning. It also helped that you were on my fantasy team.
So keep up the good work, you're the man.
Best thing I saw all year: The second time Pedro clunked Guillen and Guillen threatened to charge the mound, all four infielders were standing up to him between he and Pedro. That kind of unity hasn't been here in years (no one came out to help Piazza when Clemens threw a piece of bat at him)
As for your blog name, I'm sure you'd get sick of having your last name used as a homonym for the word "Right". So if you don't want something like that, you can use "The Hot Corner", "Chin Music", "Alto Queso", Or "The wheelhouse". Or you could go "Wright away"... it is too easy.
Take Care!

You're very lucky to have a name that is so versatile. I have trouble seeing so many options for Delgado or Beltran. You have so many options like Wrighting the Ship.
I think that your original name for the blog is not bad, but if you want something else how about . . . -
Just Wright.
It has a bit of a double meaning and doesn't seem so egotistical.
I think that my favorite thing about you is your modesty and humility. The Wright Stuff and names like that seem too arrogant.
I also like - Wrightings -which is simple and nice.
Keep up the wonderful season and as a baseball coach it is nice to see such a dedicated role model for our youth.

I know your going to be a future MVP (if not this year) so I would like to know a little more about you so I think this blog is great. I hope Willie eventually stops babying you and bats you third were you belong. Keep stealing bases, keep going oppo, keep wagging that tongue and just keep on keeping on.

Hey Dave,
Your website doesn't merit a name; it's not worthy.
In all seriousness though, you're a great player, and I know many Met fans are probably expecting a lot from you. Dont worry. Just go out there with the heart. I don't think we idolize you simply because you have a high BA; many players have great stats. I credit you so much for you athletic ability. But we enjoy your spirit. You, Reyes, Floyd all bring something to the field that makes old Mets fans vibrant, and young Mets fans excited for the future. I was at your first RBI game verses the Marlins. You hustled like it was your life on the line, Pete Rose style. You live this game, and I cannot respect you anymore for living and playing in the greatest city on earth, dedicating your years to the greatest fans on earth. Best of luck this year, and "no pressure" (Yeah, I know that's seemingly hard in NY).

Unless you would like to go with a title thats a little less deep- "Wright-ings" was also pretty clever :) Congrats on being ranked NL's leader in batting avg. and the 3rd in RBI's!

David,
I'm a 16 year old high school student who absolutely loves watching you play. I'm a diehard Mets fan and I would have to say you are the best thing that has ever happened to this team. I can't wait until the organization appoints you captain of this great team. Hopefully you will be in orange and blue for a long long time.
I am a little embarrassed to say, but I've read every comment here just to see if everybody is showing you the love and support that you deserve.
I could write a thesis on how much of an amazing person, and player you are. I'm going to try and keep this simple.
You're such an exciting player. Your always smiling and hustling. You work so hard. I would watch a game that the Mets are getting blown out (not that it ever happens =]) just to see you get a hit, or watch you hustle or smile.
I've heard stories from fellow Met fans who have had the priveledge of meeting you. Everybody raves about how nice of a guy you are. I hope one day I join the priveledged, and I get to meet you.
The 1st Spring Training I am old enough to go to, I am flying down there just to see you. You are absolutely amazing.
This morning I underwent Tommy John surgery. Baseball is my life and I am very upset about my injury.
I am a pitcher and it takes a long time for me to recover. I know this is a longshot, and I shouldn't be asking, but could you PLEASE take some time out of you busy life and send me an autographed card or something? I would cherish that autograph.
If you would like to, you can email me at dwrightisgod@yahoo.com .
Wow, this took me at least 20 minutes to type this with one hand lol. I'm sorry for the book. Good luck throughout the season. Keep up the good work. Great first week!
Your biggest fan,
John

Hi David,
I guess I'll put my two cents in on this whole naming thing:
"5 at 5"
since you're number 5, third base is position 5, and you bat 5th in the order...maybe that one requires too much explanation, but there's just too many 5's for it to be overlooked.
Maybe "Live at/from Five."

Hi, David--
I'd like to suggest a corny name: 5 Alive.
Anyway, you are truly a gifted player, and I knew you were something special when you came up in 2004. I have read on the 'Net what a great person you are who always makes time for the fans--I hope that never changes. As a fan yourself, I'm sure you understand how special it is to get some kind of attention from your favorite ballplayer, whether it's a photo, an autograph, or whatever.
I love watching you play, and yes, I proudly wear my Wright #5 jersey when I go to Philly to see the Mets play. You are well on your way to being the Toast of the Town in NYC--more so than that guy on the other side of town who's known by the first letter of the alphabet.
You're off to a great start--best of success to you this year!

Hey, David--
Since it seems only right to introduce myself, I'm a 16-year-old high school student from New Jersey who is really anticipating the 2006 season.
This is a really cool thing. It's great that players are interested in keeping in touch with the fans, especially a fan favorite like you.
Anyway, looks like another one of my teams is going to be great this season! It's exciting to see the Rangers (hockey) come out of nowhere, and then the Mets put together a crazy team and open up the season 4-1.
Anyway, I wish you all you guys the best of luck, especially you, David, as you sift through all of the corny blog names that play on 'Wright.' I'll be following this all season, and I hope you keep it current!
Stay good!

Hi Mr. Wright,
I'm sorry to repeat things that people have already said but I just wanted to say you are my favorite Mets player ever! As soon as you stepped on the field for the first time I looked over at my dad and said, "He is definitely my favorite player!"
I just have one quick question, and don't worry if you can't get back to me. How did you get the number 5? It has always been my favorite number, but I was just wondering.
I know a lot of people have requested this but I think you should name your blog "The Wright Stuff"

Hi David!
How about "Wright at Home" as your new blog name?
I am the mother of three in a family of Met fans. My husband and I both grew up Met fans, and our kids, aged 22, 18, and 17 share our love of the Mets. Needless to say, we are great supporters of the Mets, through the ups and downs, and we have high hopes for this season. Even our beagle, Homer, is a big fan (my son read you have a dog named Homer, too).
We own a liquor store in northern New Jersey, and our cooler doors are numbered 1 - 8. This year, we took down the regular numbers and replaced them with Met player numbers, 1 through 8, in orange and blue, complete with names. You, of course, are door number 5, the location of most of our Budweiser products. You are in good company: 1-Wilson, 2-Throneberry, 3-Harrelson, 4-Dykstra, 6-Backman, 7-Kranepool, and 8-Carter.
You've already made our Wall of Fame. That's what we think about your future as a Met!
Good luck!

I've been a Mets fan since I was a kid in the 60's. Omar Minaya has done a bang up job. I really appreciate what's he's done with the franchise. It's a joy watching you guys play. It truly is.
How about -
The Wright Stuff!
I'm surprised no one's suggested that.
Anyway, congratulations on a fine start to the season.

Here's to a winning season! Looking forward to reading your blog and hearing regular updates from you about the team, your experience as a NY Met, and maybe even a glimpse of your life beyond baseball. You are a truly wonderful talent & I look forward to watching you on the field this season, as you inch your way into the spotlight more and more each day -- all due to your spectacular performance. Keep up the good work :) My suggestions for your blog names are "Write On, Wright On", "Wright's Bytes", or "Day and Night - The Insight of David Wright". Best of luck!

Hi David. I currently took up voodoo on an amatuer level and was wondering if you could send me a lock of hair or some personal item of that nature. Thanks and have a great season!

I know you probably arent reading to comments this far down... Lord knows I stopped a long time ago. Anyways Im a 22 year old Mets fan from Jersey, in school at Michigan. I got my first ever baseball jersey last year, and it is, of course, a #5. As far as the name of the blog goes... Anything without a Wright (right) pun will do fine by me. I'm sure you are a little sick of all the puns as well, haha. Well, you've had a great start, and I wont talk about the Hrs and stuff, but I wanted to say, in that AB in the bottom of the ninth against Florida, you really sent a message to young ball players everywhere. You couldve easily swung for the fences and tried to hit the 2 run bomb, but instead you did the (W)right thing (sorry, couldnt resist) and just made sure to get the ball to the right side, and deep enough to score Beltran.
Just wanted to say youve looked great at the plate, and your range at third seems improved too. I think this team can really do something special. I think its great that you are doing a blog like this for the fans, we appreciate any kind of inside info, on what its like to be on a Major League Ballclub. As good as you are on the field, you seem like an even better person. Every interview and every article I read, I just love you more and more. You know what its like to be a fan, and you appreciate what we mean to the club. Dont let the millions that are inevitably coming your way make you forget that!
We love you, streak or slump, and Ill be watching every game this year (MLBTV saves my life while im at school). Keep up the great work, and keep working hard (but not TOO hard), and most importantly, keep having fun out there. Thats the real way you win us over, cause its not a job to you, you are always having fun when you are playing ball...
Sorry that was so long.

David -
I don't know if you'll appreciate this, but in our household, you've become our favorite Met to watch for a very significant reason.
For nearly 18 years, I was married to a wonderful man named David. We have 2 great sons, one not too much younger than yourself. (I've been a Mets fan -- growing up in a Yankees household! -- since I was 8, the year before the '69 World Series)
On May 21, 2003, my David suffered a fatal heart attack and died at the age of 41.
When you came to the Mets, we immediately took to you, in very big part because of your name.
To top it off, less than a year after losing David, a very dear friend of our family died of pancreatic cancer.
His name was Cliff.
To us, it's almost karma that there is a David right next to a Cliff, and we get a big kick out of it. It makes us feel good seeing both of you doing so well. I like to think that your namesakes are kind of watching over you -- silly, isn't it? But these are some of the things that help us cope.
So, we wish you well and hope for your continued success. There should be more young players like you.
Best,
Leah, Stephen and Daniel

OH!!!, Also, I forget where I read this, maybe it was in an online chat you did in the offseason, but I remember you calling Floyd the Big Red Dog. Ive been yelling that at Cliffy since he got here. I take full credit for inventing that nickname (even though Im sure he's heard it everywhere hes been). But I just thought it was hysterical to hear someone else use the nickname my friends and I have been trying to spread around Shea for a few years now.
"Here we go CLIIIIIFFF!!!, Lets do it BIG RED DAAAAWG!!!"
Great stuff, cant wait to get back to Shea (I already have tickets for a game against the Giants and for all 2 games against the Braves in July). seeya there!

I'm not gonna hold it against you that you're a Met, when you're that exciting to watch. Anyway, I'm lookin' forward to this, hearing about the games from a player's point of view, and the stories from the clubhouse should be entertaining.
No more carrying bags for Cliff? The end of an era, David, the end of an era. Did he find a new valet too?
I'm tryin' to get tix to the FLA/NYM doubleheader in July, so hopefully I can cheer for you in person. Good luck this season! (Except against Philadelphia ;))
And for your blog name, how about "David's Wright-ings" or something along those lines?

Hello,
Fellow Mets Fans and David what's up?
Does David even really read this?
Anyway I do not have any
suggestions for the blog name but, I am looking forward to going to many games at Shea this year and sitting by 3rd base to cheer you on, you have been on fire on that field and I am loving it.
I get so excited when you're up to bat that it's starting to make my husband a little jealous. I had made a comment that you're hot (meaning: you're playing very well honestly that is what I meant) and he took it the wrong way, now he will not take me to any games and kicks me out the house when the game is on :(
Does anyone else on this blog have this problem?

David, as a Mets Fan since the early 80's I have had the privilege to follow some of the greats and fan favorites in Mets recent history David Cone,Darryl Strawberry, Doc Gooden, Hernandez and others have made it fun to be a fan. Since Edgardo Alfonzo left though I have had trouble following the team though. Not because it was bad, but because there was not that personality that held so many of our attention.
Beginning with last year and into this year, you have led a charge to change that. (Of course, being honest, that you guys are good helps too.) Anyway, I am sure that you have heard it enough but you have become many of our favorite player and a player we can all be proud of; not only for you on field play but for the person you seem to be off the field as well. I am confident of your value to the team and the franchise and look forward to seeing you in a Mets uniform for many years to come.
Please share this sentiment with all of your teamates. I really feel, if it isn't the ost talented, this is the most fan friendly and personable team that I have ever witnessed at Shae.
I look forward to following you all this year.. Thank God for SNY!
BTW for your Blog, it should be "Chez Wright" of course pronounced Shae write.

However, as a fan of the game (and no particular team) I'd like to say congratulations on your success and hope that if I make it out to a Nats v.

We met you last year in Long Island in a car dealer where you were signing autographs. My 9 year old son took a picture with you while you signed his ball and boy I think he is your #1 fan. He has all your jerseys and tee shirts. He thinks the world of you because you are one of those simple players that know how to appreciate your fans. Boy, you have put a big smile on my little boy. My son wants to know if there is a way you can autograph the picture he has with you. He has gone to many games and have no luck getting your autograph on this picture. He carries this picture with him everytime we go to a game. For a name how about "Doing it Wright with Mr Wright"

I don't have a suggestion for a blog name, but I do have a big thank you for being an inspiration and a wonderful role model for my seven year old grandson, Nicholas. He recently lost his mother. Baseball is the one thing that can bring a big smile to his face. He plays little league and is quite good. When he watches you and you get a hit, there is no containing him. Just figured I'd let you know the influence you have on the children. It's a big resposibility, but I know you won't let them down. Keep up the good work and
god bless .

Lifelong Met-fan that hopes you're a lifelong Met. My only regret before this season began is that I failed to draft you in round 1 this year. You led my fantasy team to the championship last year! It's good to see you recognize the blog needs a name change. I was thinking something along the lines of "Thoughts from the best 3B in NY" Keep up the awesome work. I am so impressed with your maturity and that you always seem to come through in the clutch. My 5-yr old is in his second year of baseball and loves the Mets and you, of course, are his favorite player. Thanks for being an awesome role model!

Hey David, Ive been following your career since A ball and my opinion is that you are already among the best in baseball and can still be so much better. Keep it up!

It is a pleasure to watch you play. My nephew is in the minors and we had a great time watching you develop your skills. We knew you would be an all star! Just like Reyes, and now Lastings. I think the blog title " Wright about now" is great. It signifies where the Mets are. I know others have suggested that, I like it. My son is a die hard Mets fan, and we live in Massachusetts, so he battles with Sox fans all day. He's 17, born in '88, so he has not seen a World Series title for the Mets. I was lucky enough to get tickets to game three in 2000, the only game we won against the Yankees. He loved it, as I did. I remember '69 and '86, and I'm sure my son will remember these years as I did those. My daughters are 23 and 25, and they are true Mets fans too. Keep signing autographs, that is an awesome thing you do. We enjoy watching so much. Good luck and stay healthy. ----see you at Shea!

Greetings David,
I read what you said about playing the game hard and playing it right. I think it's great that you mention a cross-town rival in Derek Jeter who, I also think, plays the game right. It's ironic, because a lot of Mets fans, including myself, consider you the Mets "Derek Jeter". You have the same leadership qualities, you're great in the clutch, and of course, you play hard everyday. Keep up the great work, and I hope you're a mainstay with the Mets' organization until you retire.
As for a suggestion for a title to your blog, how about "You know I'm Wright!"

You are a great player, better yet, a great person. I became a Met fan back in 1997 when I came from Mexico and when the team was trying to built. It was great to see the Mets going all the way to the World Series in 2000, seeing Timo Perez jumping in center field was the best moment in my Met life. The last years have been brutal for us, but this is going to be a special year, because we have a special player, and a MVP.
It's a shame I won't be around to enjoy the season (I'm moving back to Mexico in May) but I will be checking you guys on the web. Hope to go to another game before I move back to Mexico, but if not, I'll see you in the World Series at Shea...

I was SO excited watching opening day this year. I was so bummed I didn't make it but I wore your jersey to school & tuned into the game once I got home. And I was never more excited when I saw you blast that ball out over the wall! I was yelling so loudly I bet your heard it at Shea Stadium. You are my favorite Met, not only because I think you are a good-looking guy, but because you are a very well-rounded player. I love to watch you play. You are an amazing 3rd Basemen, better than that bum Robin Ventura and I love that you can swing the bat. I can't wait to see how the Mets will finish this year. I can feel it. This is going to be the year. The Team. The Time. The Mets.

Hi David...
I grew up a Met fan in a yankee fan home only because my first game was with my Dad and the kiwanis club. The game was Seaver's one hitter!
Thats a great first game for a kid to attend!Tom Terrific. The Miracle Mets. It’s Wednesday night, July 9, 1969.
And here we go again... in 2006 !!!
You truely are awesome...way beyond your years You put your all into every game, every inning, every play...
I believe it is:
The Team - The Time.
I know it's early but you guys are playing with drive and together as a team ,as you said in you blog.
I've been watching the Mets for may years,(probably all of them, LOL)It has occured to me that at least 90% of the time the first pitch is a strike ,right down the middle. Now with this in mind,How would it sound to just go for it. Ok.....it's either a strike or a blast...if not ...it's a strike anyway...??? What is your opinion on this?
For the name of your blog.I would go with "Wrightings" or "Wright here, Wright Now" as suggested by a few of your fans.
Thank you for your "Love of The Game" , David

Mr Wright,
I wanted to tell you that you are doing a great job so far and that you are living up to ESPN's magazine cover as a franchise player. I really appreciate the fact that you take your time to communicate with the fans. This goes against my thoughts of current players such as Gary Sheffield who play for money and not for the love of the game. I think you have a great ability to get things going offensively and that you play defense as well as Rey Ordonez. LETS GO METS!

I read that you have a boxer puppy how old is he/she now? That must be fun b/c i have a 4month 1/2huskie 1/2lab and i got her when she was 5weeks and ever since then she has been one crazy adorable puppy. Oh and one last thing, i was watching SNY the other day when the game got postponed and they put on 'The Kids Clubhouse,' and they showed when you and Cliff were on TRL. I just wanted to tell you that you looked very nice all dressed down out of your uniform, not saying that you don't look good in your uniform too, well have a great year, best of luck and i'll see you at Shea.

David,
Dude you gotta go with "Wrighter's Block". It's gotta be tough to think of what to write in a blog, so the title would be appropriate. Keep up the good work. You're a great example for all the Little Leaguers out there!

I doubt you will get down this far. I'd rather you go out and enjoy your free time personally but I'll throw in my suggestion.
Wright Frame of Mind
Anyway, bring a championship this year and bat .500. Later.

Hey David,
My name is Billy Clement and I am from Virginia Beach, Virginia. You are a big icon in Hampton Roads and are obviously one of the best athletes that have ever come out of this area. I play baseball and have learned the game from a Mr. Nick Boothe, a man who I know you are very close with. Also, my principal, Mr. Michael Kelly, coached you in either middle or high school. My family is very close with his and I have heard many stories about you. My parents were born and raised in New York and have taught me how to bleed Mets blood. You are a dynamic player and I hope you have a great year and career.
If you can, please e-mail me back!
Best Wishes,
Billy Clement

Hi David,
My name is Patti & have been a Mets fan my whole life. I think you are just the best player I have seen in a long time. You have so much enthusiasm & passion for the game - very contagious! You are definitely my MVP - keep on working hard & bring us home a championship! I go to many games & wear your jersey all the time. My nephew had the pleasure of meeting you last year at his baseball awards dinner - wish I was there too. As for a blog name - you MUST go with "WRIGHTINGS" or "WRIGHTER'S BLOCK". Best of luck this year!
